The 'other' go at this has the following suggested fields:
http://burghthof.nl/osm/apiinfo.php

I would suggest the addition of a longer description field where more of 
an argument can be added (a note under query could have multiple people 
adding text to this). Also fields for whether the note has been 
actioned.

Giving:

 * lat
 * lon
 * short note
 * longer note
 * email (for requesting more info from submitter)
 * date
 * state/stage (new, under review, fully processed)

>From looking at kleptog's one it has more of a structure to the 
feedback, I would suggest that if such options are presented they make 
up the content of the short note, eg: 'Road - Missing road', 'Poi - Name 
incorrect'. That way we can have the same data model with different 
front ends, also makes it easy to add extra options to the list offered. 
(For reference WhereAmI already feeds data into the burghthof note 
system - I would hope to be able to move these to the official system 
for processing).

Cheers,

Adam.
